This is Module 1, Course Overview.

這是模塊 1，課程概述。

Would you like to increase your effectiveness as an English language teacher?

您想提高自己作為英語教師的效率嗎？

Would you like to go beyond the well-known methods that often leave teachers frustrated with their one-size-fits-all approach?

眾所周知，"一刀切 "式的教學方法常常讓教師感到沮喪，您是否希望超越這些方法？

This course will take you on to a fascinating exploration of what it means to be a teacher, how to understand who your students are and the needs they have, and how to choose the most appropriate teaching materials and activities for your classroom.

本課程將帶您探索教師的意義、如何瞭解學生及其需求，以及如何為課堂選擇最合適的教學材料和活動。

You will learn how you can choose and fine-tune the principles that exactly fit your teaching situation and enable the realization of the General Education Curriculum 2018 for English subjects.

您將瞭解如何選擇和微調完全適合您的教學情況的原則，並使 2018 年英語學科通識教育課程得以實現。

Let's get started by getting to know each other.

讓我們從相互瞭解開始吧。

Pause the video now.

現在暫停視頻。

Think about your ideal English classroom.

想想你理想中的英語課堂。

This may be a class of English that you experienced as a language learner, or a class that you expect to teach, or a class that you have touched and are really satisfied with it.

這可能是你作為語言學習者經歷過的一堂英語課，也可能是你期望教授的一堂課，還可能是你接觸過並非常滿意的一堂課。

Draw a picture of the class.

為全班畫一幅畫。

You can put some notes next to the picture too.

您還可以在圖片旁邊加上一些註釋。

Resume the video when you are ready.

準備好後再繼續播放視頻。

Alright, now let's compare your picture with some of the pictures I have here.

好了，現在讓我們把你的照片和我這裡的一些照片進行比較。

Do you expect a class where students can freely do whatever they want?

你希望學生在課堂上隨心所欲嗎？

Many students say that they would like a stress-free environment in their classroom.

許多學生說，他們希望在課堂上能有一個沒有壓力的環境。

They explain that stress is said to raise the blood pressure and increase the probability of having a heart attack.

他們解釋說，壓力會使血壓升高，增加心臟病發作的概率。

Memory loss is another side effect of stress.

記憶力減退是壓力的另一個副作用。

Students may not be performing at their best if they are too stressed out.

如果壓力過大，學生可能無法發揮出最佳水準。

Having a stress-free environment at school will eliminate any of these, and the best way to create such environment is to let students do whatever they want.

營造一個沒有壓力的校園環境可以消除這些問題，而創造這種環境的最佳方法就是讓學生做他們想做的事情。

Some other people state that they would like a stress-free environment too, but the teachers must be able to manage their classes.

還有一些人表示，他們也希望有一個沒有壓力的環境，但教師必須能夠管理好自己的班級。

These people suggest that an ideal class should provide students with as many opportunities to interact with each other as possible.

這些人認為，理想的課堂應為學生提供儘可能多的互動機會。

This can be achieved by putting students in pair work and group work in order to take advantage of these pairs and groups in the English class.

這可以通過讓學生結對子和小組合作來實現，以便在英語課堂上發揮這些結對子和小組合作的優勢。

And therefore, the teacher should equip themselves with techniques to set up pairs and groups.

是以，教師應掌握建立對子和小組的技巧。

For some other people, learning English is like a discovery journey.

對另一些人來說，學習英語就像是一次探索之旅。

Learners are the explorers.

學習者是探索者。

The teacher is the guide and an explorer themselves too.

教師是嚮導，自己也是探險家。

During the journey, learners acquire and master not only linguistic elements and the four language skills, but also other essential skills for life such as communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, and cultural awareness.

在學習過程中，學習者不僅能獲得和掌握語言要素和四種語言技能，還能獲得和掌握其他生活必備技能，如溝通、協作、批判性思維、創造力和文化意識。

The English journey takes advantage of technology advances like the internet and multimedia equipment.

英語之旅利用了互聯網和多媒體設備等先進技術。

Meanwhile, some people prefer individual work.

同時，有些人更喜歡個人工作。

Individual work isn't just for those introverts out there.

個人工作並不只適合那些內向的人。

It can help our students to gain independence to think things through on their own, to improve confidence in working through a problem even when they don't feel certain about every step.

它可以幫助我們的學生獲得獨立思考問題的能力，提高他們解決問題的信心，即使他們對每一步都沒有把握。

Students can work at their own level rather than having to adapt to suit their group members.

學生可以按照自己的水準進行學習，而不必根據小組成員的情況進行調整。

They can practice self-control both in staying focused on the task at hand and in having the willpower to avoid turning to a neighbour or asking the teacher for the answers.

他們可以鍛鍊自我控制能力，既能專注於手頭的任務，又能有毅力避免向鄰居求助或向老師詢問答案。

Students can get more comfortable taking action on their own or gain creativity and effective thinking processes that can apply to problem-solving across a range of subjects and types of issues.

學生可以更加自如地自行採取行動，或獲得創造力和有效的思維過程，這些過程可用於解決各種學科和類型的問題。

Plus, it can be easier for the teacher to assess an individual work, at least easier in a traditional sense, if you have an idea of the norm for the type of work you are looking for.

此外，如果您對所需作品類型的標準有所瞭解，那麼教師在評估單個作品時就會更容易，至少從傳統意義上來說更容易。

Thinking about the classroom setting, one may prefer having desks arranged in fixed rows like this.

考慮到教室環境，人們可能更喜歡把課桌這樣固定排成一排。

The advantage is that this way of setting allows you to fit many desks into a small space and your students talk less during teacher-directed and independent activities when they are further apart from their friends and this one makes partner work simple.

這樣做的好處是，可以在狹小的空間內擺放許多課桌，而且學生在教師指導和獨立活動時，由於與朋友的距離較遠，說話的次數也會減少。

However, it also spreads children or students out considerably so that it can be hard to address them all, making group work harder because the desks can't easily be moved around.

但是，這樣也會大大分散兒童或學生的注意力，難以照顧到所有兒童或學生，而且由於課桌不容易移動，小組工作也會更加困難。

Alternatively, you may picture your ideal classroom setting as having movable desks and chairs.

或者，你也可以把理想的教室環境想象成可移動的課桌椅。

With this type of furniture, it is easy for the teacher and students to arrange seatings in different ways.

有了這種傢俱，老師和學生就很容易以不同的方式安排座位。

For example, you can have clusters of tables which make it easier for group work and for you to navigate around in the classroom.

例如，你可以把桌子集中在一起，這樣既便於小組合作，也便於你在教室裡走動。

However, one problem which is sure to arise is the fact that not all students will be able to face you, leading to side talking.

不過，有一個問題肯定會出現，那就是並非所有學生都能面對你，從而導致旁人議論紛紛。

To combat this distraction, it is important to establish a set of ground rules at the outset, such as no side conversations, that all students must face you when you are speaking, and that each group is responsible for keeping their cluster clean and organized.

為了消除這種干擾，在一開始就制定一套基本規則非常重要，例如不得旁敲側擊，所有學生在你發言時都必須面向你，每個小組都有責任保持本組的整潔和有序。

So as you can see, within just only classroom management issues, we may have a lot to discuss.

所以，正如你所看到的，僅僅是課堂管理問題，我們就可能有很多東西要討論。

And this course will go beyond just only classroom or lesson management issues.

本課程還將探討課堂或課程管理之外的其他問題。

We're looking at the way that we can teach other skills and language elements as well.

我們正在研究如何同時教授其他技能和語言元素。

So what can you expect about the course?

那麼，您對課程有什麼期待呢？

Now let's discover it.

現在，讓我們來發現它。

Alright, now here comes more specific information about the course.

好了，現在我們來了解一下課程的具體資訊。

Firstly, in terms of course participants, as the name suggests, the course name is Teaching English to Students at Upper Secondary School Level.

首先，就課程參與者而言，顧名思義，課程名稱是 "高中學生英語教學"。

So the course is designed to fit both novice teachers and the teachers in practice.

是以，本課程的設計既適合新手教師，也適合在職教師。

As it is an online course, it suits any pace of learning as well as satisfies a wide variety of learning needs.

由於是在線課程，它適合任何學習進度，並能滿足各種學習需求。

Participants are expected to be at C1 CFR level or level 5 or above of English language proficiency.

參與者的英語水平應達到 CFR C1 級或 5 級或以上。

However, those who are not yet acquiring C1 could still consider this course since there is a lot of support on offer.

不過，那些尚未獲得 C1 學位的人仍然可以考慮學習這門課程，因為這裡會提供很多支持。

Now regarding the course objectives, well, through some example analysis, you may well recognize that teaching is not an easy job at all, right?

現在，關於課程目標，通過一些實例分析，你可能會認識到，教學工作一點也不輕鬆，不是嗎？

There are hundreds of thousands of decisions that you as a teacher may have to make while planning the lesson, delivering the lesson as well as after finishing the lesson.

作為一名教師，在備課、上課和課後都可能需要做出成千上萬個決定。

All these decisions must be well informed and lies on a solid theoretical background.

所有這些決定都必須有充分的依據和堅實的理論基礎。

So for this course, teachers are expected to be able to identify the competencies to develop in each lesson of language elements and language skills, apply the procedures or stages of lessons and appropriate instructional techniques to teach the lesson, and to use their critical thinking and reflective practice in conducting reflection in action and reflection on action.

是以，本課程要求教師能夠確定每節課要培養的語言要素和語言技能方面的能力，運用課程的程序或階段以及適當的教學技巧進行教學，並運用批判性思維和反思性實踐進行行動反思和行動反思。

The course is benchmarked against the Foreign Language Teacher Competency Framework, FLTC, which is explained in Documentary No. 2069 by the Ministry of Education and Training.

第二個領域側重於教師應用教學方法和手段的能力，具體包括標準 2.1、2.2、2.3、2.5 和 2.6（如螢幕所示），以及在教學實踐中運用通識教育課程知識的能力，這在領域 1 的標準 6 中得以實現。

Generally, the second domain addresses the teachers' knowledge about methodology in language teaching, preparing lesson plans, conducting the lessons, and assessing how much students have learned.

一般來說，第二領域涉及教師對語言教學方法、備課、上課和評估學生所學知識的瞭解。

It also introduces teachers the resources and technologies available that can be adapted for language teaching in our teacher education program, and these competencies are developed through a number of courses or topics in English language teaching methodology.

它還向教師介紹可用於我們教師教育課程語言教學的現有資源和技術，並通過英語語言教學法方面的一些課程或專題來培養這些能力。

Now, in terms of the course structure, well, in the course, principles of teaching language elements and language skills and the suggested classroom procedures and activities are closely linked with the instructions of the general education curriculum for English subjects.

現在，就課程結構而言，在課程中，語言要素和語言技能的教學原則以及建議的課堂程序和活動與英語學科的普通教育課程訓示密切相關。
